Instructions:

2. Melt Butter: Start by melting 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium heat. Once melted, set it aside to cool slightly.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup. Whisk well until everything is incorporated.
4. Add Eggs: Crack 4 eggs into the mixture and whisk until smooth. The mixture will be somewhat frothy.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together 4 tablespoons of baking powder, 1 tablespoon of salt, 2 cups of all-purpose white wheat flour, and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
6. Form the Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, whisking continually to prevent lumps. Mix until just combined – do not overmix.
7. Rest the Batter: Allow the batter to rest for about 5-10 minutes. This helps to ensure fluffy pancakes.
8. Preheat Griddle or Pan: While the batter is resting, preheat your griddle or pan over medium heat. Lightly coat it with the remaining melted butter or a little oil to prevent sticking.
9. Cook Pancakes: Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour small amounts of batter onto the griddle or pan. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
10. Flip and Cook: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
11. Serve: Remove the pancakes from the griddle and keep them warm. Repeat the cooking process for the remaining batter.
12. Optional: Serve the pancakes warm with additional maple syrup, butter, or your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, or whipped cream.

Enjoy your delicious and healthy Maple-infused Whole Wheat Super Pancakes! Serve them hot, topped with a little more butter, fresh fruits, or a drizzle of maple syrup. These pancakes are the perfect way to start your day on a delightful note, combining nutritious ingredients with the comforting warmth of maple syrup.

Maple-infused whole wheat super pancakes FAQ:

What is the cooking time for these pancakes?

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

What pan size is ideal for cooking these pancakes?

A standard griddle or frying pan works well. Ensure it's large enough to fit multiple pancakes at once, ideally around 12-14 inches in diameter.

How should I store leftover pancakes?

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen for longer storage; just separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Can I substitute ingredients in this pancake recipe?

Yes, you can use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour for a higher fiber option. Non-dairy milk can replace 2% milk, and coconut oil can be used instead of butter.

How do I know when the pancakes are done cooking?

Pancakes are done when they are golden brown and spring back when lightly pressed. Additionally, check for a uniform golden color and ensure no wet batter remains on the surface.

Tips:

- Preheat the griddle or pan properly.: Ensure your cooking surface is fully heated before pouring your batter. This helps the pancakes cook evenly and develop a nice golden-brown color.

- Do not overmix the batter.: Mix the ingredients until just combined; overmixing can result in tough pancakes. It's okay if there are a few lumps in the batter.

- Use fresh baking powder.: For the fluffiest pancakes, make sure your baking powder is fresh. Expired baking powder can result in flat pancakes.

- Let the batter rest.: Allow the pancake batter to rest for about 5-10 minutes before cooking. This gives the flour time to hydrate and results in softer pancakes.

- Flip the pancakes at the right time.: Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges start to look set before flipping. This ensures they're cooked through and golden-brown on both sides.
